Look little sips - most of your domination over A&M was when the school was small, and all male. Also, if you don't think that Mack cheated his arse off, you are an idiot. It may hurt to hear it, but since moving to the SEC, things have changed drastically.

We've moved on, and don't need you anymore. We don't go to your boards to chat with.you. This is our home, our conference, and you are the visitors and underdogs here

Act like it you arrogant little pricks.

Would you want to play a school that has done this to you?



They also trail the baseball series by 100+ games and the basketball series by 50+ games.

I don't blame little bro for running tbh.


Congrats on going like 37-1 from WWII to Vietnam. Seriously, you dominated. God bless those Ags for suffering through it.

For you guys who love revisionist history - this article proves we were open to keeping the rivalry, but the horns -Dodds specifically - were too butthurt they decided to take their ball and go home.

But I guess if telling yourselves “they ran because they are scared to play” lets you sleep at night, please continue. Just know that logic doesn’t make sense because we “ran” TO a tougher conference.

Are you suggesting A&M fans root for big brother each year in December and Jan like AU fans have begun to do?

They're children compared to anyone who actually experienced any kind of a championship at aggy

Lemme add:

2011: Texas AD to A&M: Our schedule is full

2013: Texas AD on Texas A&M: 'We get to decide when we play again'

2014: Texas AD: ‘I don’t see us focusing on’ renewing A&M rivalry

2017: Texas reportedly asked other Big 12 teams to not schedule Texas A&M, either

A&M-TX is not a lasting rivalry. There's enough of a demand for one big game, but it's not something either school wants, much less needs. TX needs it more in the sense that they need a home sellout since the okies game is in Dallas. We have either Bama or Lsu at home every yr so we already have our big home game guaranteed. The game matters more to sportscasters who don't want to be stuck with their family over thanksgiving or 2nd tier big 12 fans who want A&M to suffer for leaving them.

EXACTLY!

This was the equivalent of Clemson or USC playing The Citadel annually. The fact that we even won once is a miracle.

Guess who doesn't realize aggy gave out as many or more scholarships than Texas? Please explain. Honest question

There were several points in the 1950s (under Bryant) and the 1960s (under Stallings) that aggy was out-recruiting TEXAS, offering more scholarships and having a larger roster of scholarship players.

Bryant was a crook and eked out some good teams before Mama called and he left aggy holding the bag(men).

Stallings also ran afoul of the NCAA but was a terrible coach at that point, and his record reflected it.

So this mantra about "aggy was the poor Citadel and couldn't keep up" is total bullshite.

You just fouled up a good situation and pissed away everything, like aggy is prone to do.

We shouldn't allow aggy to compare themselves to such a proud program such as The Citadel.

The Citadel has at least been competitive among its peers, winning a conference championship within the last 20 years.

You can’t “allow” us to do anything, son. We’ll do what we want and you can just sit in your corner and watch. Lol

That's rich considering you only have 1 conference title in the last 19 years.

If we had played for that period our series would look a lot like UT-A&M
